UPS Problem

Er, and the problem is what, exactly?

Can't get me?.o.k.

I think UPS-Uninterrupted Power

whenever the power is not available the system should need to take the power from UPS directly without any interruption na?

Mine also doing this well But the proplem is it shutdowns a few seconds and then switch ON automatically

within that time all unsaved program have gone

OK. "20 Questions" time.

• So what does it say about it in the UPS Manual?
• What does the UPS vendor have to say?
• Is it still under warranty?
• How valuable is the unsaved program and is there a maintenance call-out contract in force with the original equipment manufacturer or a local UPS distributor/aftermarket supplier?
• Are the UPS batteries in top condition? If not, why not?
• Is it switched into the correct operating mode?
• What make and model is it?
• How old is it?
• Does the problem go away when an alternative UPS is substituted?
• etc., etc.

None of these things can be seen from here.

Does your UPS also provide AVR (automatic voltage regulation)?

It sounds like your power goes out often. You may also have voltage spikes and drops that can wreak havok on your computer.......and maybe the UPS itself.

Just a thought, I don't know if this is the problem.

Thank god,

Thank you verymuch for you sir.I am also having the same setup like you.

Previously i had connected my systems UPS with the inverter supply.

I had given a seperate mainline for my PC's UPS. I feel now the proplem has solved.

Thankyou once again

Glad to have been of help. Hope you won't have this problem in future.

Some UPS configurations have several plugs which are surge protection only and several that are zero crossover time UPS supplies. It may be you have inadvertantly connected your PC to one of the SP's instead of a UPS connection. Just theory as there's not much to go on here.

The UPS that you are using does not switch fast enough to maintain your computer. Purchase a true UPS such as a Liebert or Toshiba and you will have seamless transition. There are other brands out there that will work as well.

The holdup time of your PC power supply is too low, and the start time of your UPS is too slow, when power fails, it goes to zero and the UPS starts. During this gap the power stored in the switching capacitors should run the power supply for a few cycles.

So the PC maker saved money and gave you aggravation.

Hold up time considerations

There is another type of UPS, a continuously running one, where a charger charges the battery and the UPS runs from it. These have no switchover time, but do have an added continuous load.

Some large operations have large flywheels, with motor/generators coupled to diesels that run 24/7(with no fuel and with valves blocked open). If power fails the system detects and operates the valves, starts the fuel and the flywheel provided the holdup power until the diesel is at full output

Yes, I have an Ultra that works this way, runs off the batteries and charges them, when after 4 years one morning the computer would'nt power up I ordered a new set of batteries, cost was 39.00 from amazon source, back in business,

Spyware spies are in control. This is not a joke.

1. This is a new developement or from start is.

Generally there are 2 types of small UPS:

a. Online means the UPS is running all the time and on power outage it takes the load till its battery is discharged to the end voltage, or power resumes.

b. Off-Line [ or any name] which is Stad-bye to start as soon as thepower fails or brown-outs. This type has a delay in starting but less than a 1/2 cycle and PC is noy intrupted. The professional models are quick to start but non-professional models may have a little more delay.

can you list your model and some specs [from its nameplate.

Simply your ups is not a ups with zero time load transfer (on-line type), but a standby relay operated power supply (stand-by type). Usually the later works under certain assumptions (electrolytic capacitors of PC large enough to withstand the load for several milliseconds until transfer etc). Two solutions, either change UPS or have a look at the PC caps. Probably they are old enough and 'dry' and need replacement.

hello, First check while power cut condition UPS is ON,if not so Battery might have drain out replace the battery. If ON and the Problem is as you wrote then UPS is of low capacity. change the UPS to Higher Capacity. With Regards SHABU
